  2. Rewilding Expertise Centre

    rewildingexpertisecentre.nl
    Rewilding is increasingly applied across the world to stimulate biodiversity recovery, improving ecosystem functioning and mitigate and adapt to climate change. There is increasing experience with rewilding in practice and through research. To synthesize this information, identify knowledge gaps and make knowledge on rewilding available, the Rewilding Expertise Centre started in September 2025. Over time the Rewilding Expertise Centre aims to grow into a network of rewilding researchers, practitioners and any holders of knowledge on rewilding and function as a knowledge hub for rewilding information and education.

  9. Towards Orchid Propagation that is Free of Microbial Contamination: Green and Sustainable Solutions (TOP-MASS)

    Project 2025–2027
    Cleaner, Greener Orchid Propagation: Tackling Microbial Contamination Sustainably. Orchids are not only beautiful - they're big business. The Netherlands produces around 134 million orchids each year, worth an estimated 550 million euros. But behind the scenes, growers face a hidden threat: microbial contamination during the production of young orchid plants.

    Plants host a rich community of microorganisms on and within their leaves, collectively known as the phyllosphere microbiome. These microorganisms can enhance plant performance by supplying nutrients, protecting against pathogens, and helping plants cope with environmental stresses. Despite their importance, the diversity and functions of many of these microorganisms, especially phyllosphere yeasts, remain poorly understood.
